To tackle climate change and its negative impacts, 196 countries adopted the Paris Agreement on 12th December 2015. Being two of the committed countries, both China and the United Kingdom have launched substantial offshore wind planning since then. As a Sino-British joint venture, SBSS is dedicated to contributing to offshore clean energy development following the governmental call.
Submarine cables, both for the export and inter-array connections, are considered to be the arteries of an offshore wind farm. Since 2017, SBSS has actively engaged in over twelve offshore wind export cable and inter-array cable installation projects and supported the delivery of over 3GW of electricity transmission from offshore to shore.
SBSS is proud to be part of the green transformation.

SBSS stepped into the offshore wind sector in 2017 and have delivered numerous significant 220kV export cable installation and burial projects.
In early 2020, SBSS deployed our inspection ROV ‘Predator’ in the Dongtai windfarm to conduct the inspection of two monopile foundations and subsea J-tubes. This is the first time that ROV technology was utilized in the Chinese offshore wind O&M sector.
